The NFL’s new $72M man, and Elway’s protégé, Osweiler, was 4-7 for 27 yards with no points, a sack and a batted 4th down pass. Good thing he’s so tall.

Just preseason, of course. But it’s amusing how Bill O’Brien takes credit for what Brady and Moss achieved. I don’t think he can coach offense particularly well. Lowlife Bob McNair booted Kubiak away as if he were vermin, and is heavily invested in mediocrity.

Houston booted Hoyer after he threw a TD every 19.4 attempts last year. He choked in the playoff game and they got mad with him.
Then they paid twice as much money for Osweiler who threw a TD every 27 attempts.
This is not going to end well.

Agreed. And is there someone in NFL history who has clearly eclipsed Tebow’s statistics in their first 16 starts?

Roethisburger did, I believe. And Marino reached a fast start, but much of his legend is based on games during his second season as a starter.

In today’s pass-happy NFL, a few other young QBs are getting TD totals similar to Tebow’s, but that’s after grooming and virtually building the franchise around them. Most guys fall short of Tebow even after their 7th or 8th season.

It’s wise not to overstate things, but until I’m shown ANY player in NFL history (besides Big Ben) who has soundly eclipsed Tebow’s first 16 games as a starter, I will insist he was (is) far more than a pretty good QB.
